{"product_id":"yarra-yering-underhill-shiraz-2024","title":"Yarra Yering Underhill Shiraz 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003eA single block of Shiraz planted in 1973; 8 acres at the western end of the Yarra Yering vineyard. Wine Making: Hand harvested, the bunches pass across a sorting table before processing either as whole bunches or whole berries. 50% of the block is fermented and matured in a 3500L upright oak cask containing 20% whole bunches and topped up for maturation with 100% whole bunch component. The remainder of fermentation in the Yarra Yering half-tonne open-fermenters, gently hand plunged twice daily. Air bag pressed to release the last fermenting juice from the many whole berries that remain. The wine then aged for 12 months; 50% in the 3500L two-year- old cask and 50% to French oak puncheons (500L); 10% new oak. Perfumed cool climate Shiraz; deliciously medium bodied with a lick of aniseed spice. Vibrant blue and black plum fruits bring a fresh energy to the palate along with some liquorice spice layering in structure and complexity. As always from this block we see some cured meat and a smoke-char interest driving the back palate. Medium weighted and driven by fruit purity, oak just a faint background seasoning and a bite of stalk grip interest.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yarra Yering","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50551388242006,"sku":"YYSH202412 UCAU","price":129.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/3968\/6486\/files\/Yarra_Yering_Underhill_Shiraz_2024_001.png?v=1790736792","url":"https:\/\/unitedcellars.com.au\/products\/yarra-yering-underhill-shiraz-2024","provider":"United Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
